      Is your dog driving you nuts? Would you like to go away on vacation and come home to an excellently trained dog?

      Our board-and-train program specializes in rehabilitation, and successfully deals with canine behaviour problems. By focusing primarily on problem behaviour and difficult dogs, we’ve been able to develop a unique approach that not only transforms dogs, but also transfers seamlessly to the owners.

      We pride ourselves on our personalized approach with one-on-one attention paid to each individual dog and situation. 

      In the board and train, we address all forms of unwanted behavior, including, but not limited to:

      • Dog-to-Dog Aggression
      • Human Aggression
      • Food and/or Resource Guarding
      • Separation Anxiety
      • Severe Fear Issues
      • Reactivity On-Leash

      This program also covers all of the basic commands – Sit/Stay, Down/Stay, Place, Heel, Come/Recall – as well as Crate Training, Potty training, Waiting for Food, and Waiting at Thresholds.

      Duration of the program: 4 weeks

      *If your dog has major behavioural issues, the board and train program may be longer.

      At Obedience Unleashed Dog Training Inc., each day your dog receives:

      • two walks/hikes,
      • four personalized training sessions,
      • supervised social time with other dogs,
      • participation in our group obedience classes.

      Our Board and Train requires an Initial consultation prior to starting the program. After your dog completes the program, you receive 10 hours of follow-up handler training which is included, consisting of: 1 hour private go-home lesson upon pick up, 4 hours of group Off Leash Freedom class and 5 hours of Obedience & Socialization group walks held out and about in town.  During these sessions we will transfer all of the information, techniques, and strategies to you to ensure continued success. We also offer email and phone support during and after the program is completed.

      Testimonials

      Olivia & Kai

      I absolutely love Obedience Unleashed. I was first introduced to them when I started bringing my rescue dog for group walks. She was reactive to other dogs and the group walks really helped her overcome some anxiety meeting other dogs. When I switched jobs and my dog could no longer come to work with me, I was super happy they were able to walk my dog while I’m at work. Their staff is amazing with my dog. I recently adopted a puppy as well so I needed daycare and they are the only ones I trust with my little pup. My puppy loves all their staff and loves going to daycare. Their trainers are really great and their puppy class has helped me learn how to teach both my dogs new skills. You can tell they take a lot of pride in their work and I truly appreciate the care and concern they show for both my dogs. They work with the dogs but they’re amazing with training the owners too.

      Roman & Priest

      I took my reactive German Shepherd to Obedience Unleashed for boot camp training when he was about 8 months old and it changed my dog. However with time he became more reactive towards people and other dogs. A few months ago I decided enough is enough and signed him up for 4 weeks of board and train.

      I now have my dog back and he is completely changed. He has not only calmed down, he is listening and even my son can walk him. He no longer lunges at dogs or people. His obedience training is coming along nicely, and I know that if I do my part and stay on top of his training and work with him like Andy and Melissa did I will have an amazing dog who will walk in heal next to me off leash no matter what dog or person is near me or him.

      The training was worth every penny, and the results I got for my German Shepherd from board and train is the exact reason why I came back for it and will never take Priest, my GSD, or any of my future dogs anywhere else.

      Obedience Unleashed IS the place to take your pup, reactive, or just simply in-obedient dog to.
